A website where I can request a female, and the spider herself less than an inch long. I would like for her to live as long as possible by getting it at a young age.
That is too small to sex a T.A website where I can request a female, and the spider herself less than an inch long. I would like for her to live as long as possible by getting it at a young age.
This is absolutely true. Tarantula keeping/breeding/selling is very time consuming, and is often done by a small handful of people. Updating a website is an entirely different monster, something dealers often don't keep up on.Remember not everything they have are on their sites.
Some times they keep things off the site on purpose toosomething dealers often don't keep up on.
Anyone selling you a sexed 1" female is not reputable IMO.But no, as far as I'm aware there is no reputable website where you can make a request for a female
ExactlyThat is too small to sex a T.
If you buy a full grown adult female, you could still have it for 20 years or more.If you buy a 1" B. smithi sling, even if it is male you will have that spider for several years!

He will be enjoying that experience forever since B. smithi grow like glaciers.Yes, but maybe he wants the experience of raising a sling also.
You have a very good memory for names and posted content Chris. At first i was like, what are you talking about...then I looked at OP's posts..I hope that you will find another Theraphosidae that loves cuddles like Peanut, my man
EXACTLY MY POINT. lol He wants the T for a long time. Getting a sling = having the T for a loooong tiiiime.He will be enjoying that experience forever since B. smithi grow like glaciers.
Yeah, so. Maybe he doesn't want to raise a tiny sling, since we don't actually know, your speculation is no different than mine. I was merely making the point that even an adult will be with him for a long time.
Yes, but maybe he wants the experience of raising a sling also.
Not always, my female has gone from 1" to 4.5" in 3 years...not glacial in my books...although many do grow that slow.He will be enjoying that experience forever since B. smithi grow like glaciers.
And my point was merely that you DON'T need to buy a sling to have it for looooong time, either.EXACTLY MY POINT. lol He wants the T for a long time. Getting a sling = having the T for a loooong tiiiime.
Whoops I meant if he were to buy a juvenile or older spider like I mentioned, sorry if that wasn't clearAnyone selling you a sexed 1" female is not reputable IMO.
